I love Friday evenings - especially in the summer! After a long week of work and activities, it is so nice to go home on Friday and REST, knowing that if we want to, we can sleep in on Saturday morning or at the very least won't have to hurry to get ready and rush off to summer school, work, an appointment.
Tonight I initially thought of having some QUIET TIME - you know, ME time, alone time?! My husband is gone to Nevada over the weekend, and I had our room to myself - the lap top to myself - the TV to myself (no baseball game tonight!!).
However, as time went on, my son came by ... he didn't want to be upstairs alone. He asked if he could play his computer game on the desk top computer in my room. So, I said OK. Before we knew it, my little girl was popping her head in - could she watch my movie with me (NARNIA - the first movie - is on TV) ... and so, here she sits/lies/flops on my bed beside me.
And you know what? I'm glad they didn't want to be alone because I just realized that neither do I! :) Happy weekend, everyone!

Aw, what a sweet post. :) Even though we Mamas think we need that "alone" time...and to some extent, it's good for us...but oh how nice to have that sweet time with the kiddos. They'll remember those days. And they'll be grown and gone all too quickly. Enjoy them. :)
How sweet. And you are so right, Thank God that they want to be with you!! I know MANY children who spend most of their time in their own rooms, with video games instead of their family.
Hey I just tagged you on my blog. :)
